One Jump Ahead Lyrics - Mena Massoud

[Aladdin] 

Gotta keep 

One jump ahead of the breadline 

One swing ahead of the sword 

I steal only what I can't afford 

That's everything! 

One jump ahead of the lawmen 

That's all, and that's no joke 

These guys don't appreciate I'm broke 

[Guards] 

Riffraff! 

Street rat! 

Scoundrel! 

Take that!

[Aladdin] 

Just a little snack, guys 

[Guards] 

Rip him open 

Take it back, guys 

[Aladdin] 

I can take a hint 

Gotta face the facts 

You're my only friend, Abu! 

[Harem Girls] 

Who? 

Oh, it's sad, Aladdin's hit the bottom 

He's become a one-man rise in crime 

[Harem Manager] 

I'd blame parents except he hasn't got 'em 

[Aladdin] 

Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat 

Tell you all about it when I got the time

One jump ahead of the slowpokes 

One skip ahead of my doom 

Next time gonna use a nom de plume 

One jump ahead of the hitmen 

One hit ahead of the flock 

I think I'll take a stroll around the block 

[Guard, Merchant, Aladdin and Woman] 

Stop, thief! 

Vandal! 

Abu! 

Scandal! 

[Aladdin] 

Let's not be too hasty 

[Woman] 

Still I think he's rather tasty 

[Aladdin] 

Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat 

Otherwise we'd get along 

(Wrong!) 

[Aladdin (and the Guards)] 

One jump ahead of the hoofbeats 

(Vandal!) 

One hop ahead of the hump 

(Street Rat!) 

One trick ahead of disaster 

(Scoundrel!) 

They're quick, but I'm much faster 

(Riffraff!) 

Here goes 

Better throw my hand in 

Wish me happy landing 

All I gotta do is jump!
